月光天琴
探索月光天琴俏皮迷人的音色，它在一个大型音乐厅中录制，并配备多种麦克风选项、氛围图层和其他工具，可帮助塑造管弦乐和现代演奏的声音。
月光天琴的制作兼顾了传统和现代演奏，Fracture Sounds 团队在录制 Spotlight Piano、Midnight Grand 和 Glacier Keys 的同一音乐厅中，对音色进行了细致的捕捉。除了近、中、远麦克风选项外，音色库还包含三个精心设计的氛围图层，可与原始样本无缝融合。此外，全新的音乐盒图层可以帮助引入更复古、更俏皮的音色，而 Lo-Fi 控制则可以将音色库原始的清晰度转化为独特的电子音色。
主要控制按钮
此音色库中的主要控制按钮可让您快速塑造乐器的声音。色彩控制是一种均衡器设置，可以调亮或调暗 Celeste 的整体音色。而 Attack 和 Release 控制则能让您更好地塑造演奏体验，并在将原始样本与 Atmosphere Layers 和 Reverb 结合使用时，创作出更柔和的长音。
该音色库提供三种麦克风混音：近距离麦克风提供演奏者的视角，中间麦克风提供更均衡的音色，而远距离麦克风则增添了录制音色库时所在的大型音乐厅的氛围。您可以使用 Perspective 滑块快速找到这些信号之间的平衡。
声音设计选项
我们构建了多种工具来帮助塑造乐器的整体音色，首先是从原始样本处理而来的三个定制的 Atmosphere Layers。将这些图层与四个混响选项相结合，并增加 Attack 和 Release 控制，可以将 Celeste 从最初的管弦乐风格转变为更具现代感的氛围长音。
除了氛围控制之外，我们还提供定制的"音乐盒"层和低保真控制，这些功能在我们系列的其他产品中都有体现，可以将乐器的原始清晰度转化为更复古的音色。
高级力度控制
与 Spotlight Piano 一样，您可以使用我们的"响应"页面来调整 Moonlight Celeste 的音色和手感。为了提供更强大的控制力，我们将"动态"功能分为"音色"和"音量"，以便您分别调整每个部分。使用"音色缩放"，您可以设置输入力度值触发不同动态采样层（以及音色）的范围和曲线。"音量缩放"功能可以调整力度对每个音符音量的影响。
扩展音域
Celeste 的音域小于钢琴，因此我们提供了将乐器音域扩展至其自然范围之外的选项。这可能会降低拉伸低八度音质，但对于想要进行实验的作曲家来说，这为创作提供了更多选择。
更多设置
与我们的许多音色库一样，Moonlight Celeste 包含采样起始补偿功能，可以延长或缩短音符的起始部分。这对于现场演奏或录音时对延迟敏感的键盘手来说非常重要。录音完成后，您可以扩展采样范围，并取上方控件的毫秒值，在 DAW 的负延迟设置中进行补偿。
其他控制功能包括降低高八度音域中较为常见的"砰砰"声，以及更改"房间音色"和"氛围层"的衰减行为。如需了解更多信息，请随时下载用户手册。
MOONLIGHT CELESTE
Explore the playful and enchanting sound of the Moonlight Celeste, captured in a large concert hall with multiple microphone options, atmosphere layers, and additional tools to help sculpt the sound for both orchestral and contemporary performances.
Produced with both traditional and contemporary performance in mind, Moonlight Celeste has been captured in detail by the team at Fracture Sounds in the same concert hall Spotlight Piano, Midnight Grand, and Glacier Keys were recorded. Alongside close, middle, and far microphone options, the library also includes three curated Atmosphere Layers that blend seamlessly with the raw samples. Additionally, a new Music Box layer can help introduce a more antique and playful timbre, whilst the Lo-Fi control can transform the original clarity of the library into a unique electronic sound.
MAIN CONTROLS
The main controls in this library allow you to quickly shape the sound of the instrument. The colour control is an EQ setting that can brighten or darken the overall tone of the Celeste, whilst Attack and Release controls give you more access to sculpt the playability and create softer pads when the raw samples are combined with the Atmosphere Layers and Reverb.
The library has three mic mixes available, with the close giving the perspective of the player, the middle offering more balance, and the far mics adding more ambience from the large concert hall in which the library was recorded. You can quickly find a balance between these signals using the Perspective slider.
SOUND-DESIGN OPTIONS
We have built several tools to help shape the instrument's overall sound, starting with three bespoke Atmosphere Layers processed from the original samples. Combining these layers with four reverb options and increasing the attack and release controls can transform the Celeste from its orchestral beginnings to a more modern ambient pad.
As well as atmospheric controls, there is a bespoke Music Box layer and Lo-Fi control seen in other products across our range that can alter the original clarity of the instrument into a more antique form.
ADVANCED VELOCITY CONTROL
As with Spotlight Piano, you can shape the tone and feel of the Moonlight Celeste using our Response page. To offer a high degree of control, we have separated 'dynamics' into 'timbre' and 'volume', to allow you to shape each component separately. With Timbre Scaling you can set the range and curve of how the incoming velocity value triggers the different dynamic sample layers (and thus timbre). Volume Scaling adjusts how the volume of each note is affected by velocity.
EXTEND THE RANGE
The range of a Celeste is less than that of a Piano, so we have given the option of extending the instrument range beyond its natural amount. This can lower the quality of the sound in the stretched lower octaves, but this opens up more compositional options should composers wish to experiment.
FURTHER SETTINGS
As with many of our libraries, Moonlight Celeste includes sample start compensation to either extend or cut into the start of the note. This is important for those keyboardist who are sensitive to latency when performing live or recording into their session. Once you have recorded, you can then extend the sample range and take the ms figure above the control to compensate for this in the negative delay settings in your DAW.
Other controls include the ability to lower the sound of the thud, which is more prevalent in the upper octave ranges, and change the Room Tone and Atmosphere Layer decay behaviour. For further information, please feel free to download a copy of the user manual.
